After Long Yu was done with the Supreme Grade Ancient Ginseng, he jumped off the ancient tree, found a deep pool, and threw the Battle Weapon in his hand into it.
After that, he sprinted in the direction where Ling Han had been previously.
"That Combat Weapon left a bloody mark on the Thousand Thread Sect's disciple's neck. Keeping it will only make people suspicious, I'd better throw it away."
Long Yu didn't feel it was a pity to throw away a Combat Weapon.
Compared to being discovered by the imperial family and losing his life, a Combat Weapon was really not that important. Not to mention a Low Rank Combat Weapon, even if it was a High Rank Combat Weapon, Long Yu would throw it away without hesitation.
Soon, Long Yu returned to where Ling Han was.
At this moment, Ling Han had just buried the corpse of the Heaven Suppressing Sect disciple who had died a horrible death. After waiting for a while, he saw Long Yu running back.
"Junior brother, how was it?"
Ling Han quickly stood up and asked.
"I couldn't catch up, and I lost the Combat Weapon instead."
Long Yu said in a deep voice. Of course, he wouldn't tell Ling Han about the High Rank Ginseng.
"Did you see who it was?"
Ling Han frowned, "Could it be Yu Qianning? In the Ancient Ginseng Forest, it seems like only Yu Qianning is your opponent! But if it was her, she wouldn't have run away even if she was facing us. "
"It was someone from the Thousand Thread Sect. They were very fast, but I don't know who they are."
Long Yu shook his head and said with regret.
Since he said so, Ling Han couldn't ask any more questions, so he said, "Junior brother, now that you've obtained the Third Grade Ginseng, why don't you leave the Ancient Ginseng Forest first to ensure your own safety?"
"Senior brother, you were the one who helped me stop the pursuers, so I had the time to absorb the High Rank Ginseng."
Long Yu shook his head and smiled, "Now, how can I leave first? I'll at least help you find Mid Grade Ginseng. As for High Grade Ginseng, it's hard to say. After all, there aren't many of them in the Ancient Ginseng Forest, you might not be able to find any. "
"Good brother, I didn't misjudge you!"
Ling Han laughed.
Then, the two of them discussed their itinerary and found a big tree each. They jumped to the top of the tree and rested. They planned to set out to look for the ancient ginseng the next morning.
…
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
The two of them searched along the way and quickly found a mid-grade ancient ginseng. However, until the last day, they did not see any trace of a high-grade ancient ginseng.
"Forget it. After absorbing the low-grade and mid-grade ginseng, I'm not far from breaking through to the eighth stage of the Martial Path. As for high-grade ginseng, I don't have any extravagant requests. "
On the way to the entrance of the ancient ginseng forest, Ling Han said with a smile.
He felt that once he returned to the Zhentian Clan, he could attempt to break through to the eighth stage of the Martial Path. Once he succeeded, he would be able to challenge a core disciple of the sect.
Once he succeeded the challenge and became a core disciple, he would be able to head to the mountain behind the Zhentian Clan's Martial Arts Pavilion to comprehend supreme martial arts techniques!
For example, the martial art that Feng Yun used to pierce through Long Yu's right leg, the Sky Wave Traversal, was a supreme martial art technique with terrifying power.
Since they were both in the eighth stage of the Martial Path, Feng Yun could easily break through Tan Jian's defense with the Sky Wave Traversal.
A supreme martial art was much stronger than a high-grade martial art.
"Junior Brother, you've gained a lot this time. Not to mention that you can defeat an expert in the eighth stage of the Martial Path with your cultivation at the seventh stage of the Martial Path. It looks like it's only a matter of time before you become a core disciple. "
Ling Han said with a smile.
"Perhaps."
Long Yu nodded casually. In his heart, he was thinking that it was only natural for him to challenge a core disciple.
Once he finished absorbing the spiritual energy stored in the Nine Nether Dragon Seal and reached the eighth stage of the Martial Path, he would definitely challenge Feng Yun!
When he first entered the Zhentian Clan, he defeated Feng Yang and Fang Kang consecutively. However, Feng Yun's attack pierced through his right leg and heavily injured him.
Furthermore, Feng Yun also tried to take away Feng Changge's position as the head of the Feng Clan. This made it even more impossible for Long Yu to let him go.
"That's right, Senior Brother."
Seeing that they were about to reach the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest, Long Yu seemed to have suddenly thought of something and whispered, "If the royal family interrogates us later, just say that we grew up together in the Ling Clan's villa. How about it?"
Ling Han came from a villa near the Zhentian Clan. He was the young master of the Ling Clan's villa.
Hearing Long Yu's words, Ling Han was a little surprised, "What's wrong, Junior Brother? Could it be that you have some sort of relationship with the royal family? I heard that the royal guards are searching for someone, but it shouldn't have anything to do with you. "
"Senior Brother, to be honest, I'm not too sure about my background. However, I have a feeling that it has something to do with that golden-armored youth. If he knows about my background, I'm afraid that he'll make things difficult for me. "
Long Yu explained.
"I see. Don't worry, when the time comes, I'll say that you're my playmate who grew up with me in the Ling Clan's villa."
Ling Han laughed heartily.
Only then did Long Yu feel relieved. Following that, he and Ling Han arrived at the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest.
At the side of the city gate leading to the Ancient Ginseng Forest, there were four golden-armored martial cultivators on duty.
The golden-armored youth who looked somewhat similar to Long Yu stood behind the four golden-armored martial cultivators and personally guarded them. He would not let any of them go easily!
Seeing Ling Han and Long Yu walking over, the eyes of the golden-armored youth and the four golden-armored martial cultivators lit up at the same time.
"The two of you, stop right there!"
The golden-armored youth shouted coldly and stopped the two of them.
This fellow's martial cultivation was unfathomable. Of course, Long Yu and Ling Han could not disobey and could only stop in their tracks.
"Zhentian Clan, Ling Han, Long Yu."
The golden-armored youth glanced at the two of them. "Judging from your cultivation, it seems that you've improved a lot since you entered. Especially you, Long Yu. "
As he spoke, his sharp eyes under the golden armor looked at Long Yu. "From the sixth level of the Martial Path to the seventh level of the Martial Path. Tell me how many ancient ginsengs you've collected!"
"I've obtained inferior-grade, middle-grade, and superior-grade ancient ginsengs."
Long Yu was calm and composed. He looked straight into the eyes of the golden-armored youth and said calmly!
"Hmph."
The golden-armored young man's eyes were filled with disdain. He took a step forward and stopped in front of Long Yu. He squinted at him and said, "Your appearance, your name, it reminds me of a piece of trash that shouldn't exist!"
"Before this, we should have never met, right?"
Long Yu asked with narrowed eyes.
"Now, I'm the one asking you."
The golden-armored youth snorted coldly. "You don't have the right to ask questions! When you shouldn't speak, just shut up! "
"Lord, don't be angry."
At this moment, Ling Han finally spoke. He smiled and said, "He's my playmate since I was young in the Ling Family Villa. He definitely isn't the person you're thinking of, Lord."
"I think so too. That piece of trash shouldn't be able to step into the Martial Path."
The golden-armored youth said proudly and then waved his hand. "Search!"
As soon as these two words came out, Long Yu immediately knew that the other party was indeed guarding here to search for supreme-grade ancient ginsengs.
Unfortunately, no matter how these guys searched, they wouldn't be able to find the whereabouts of the supreme-grade ancient ginsengs!
…
Soon, Ling Han and Long Yu were searched. No suspicious items were found and they were released from the ancient ginseng forest.
Ling Han was relaxed, but Long Yu was still thinking about the golden-armored youth's words.
"… A piece of trash that shouldn't exist …"
"… That piece of trash shouldn't be able to step into the Martial Path …"
Putting these two sentences together, Long Yu was almost certain that the person the golden-armored youth was talking about was him! There was definitely a connection between him and the golden-armored young man. It was even possible that they were related by blood!
Of course, the golden-armored youth was just a guard of the princess and not a member of the imperial family. So he didn't know which family he was from. Could it be the Long Family?
Long Yu pondered as he followed Ling Han. Not long after, he saw Elder Yu in a black robe standing not far from the city gate waiting for them.
"Elder Yu."
The two of them walked over and soon arrived at Elder Yu's side.
"You guys came out. Good harvest?"
Elder Yu glanced at the two of them and smiled. Obviously, he could see that the two of them had improved, especially Long Yu, who had directly advanced a level.
"Yes, not bad. Elder Yu, after we return, I will go into seclusion to break through to the eighth stage of the Martial Path. If I succeed, I will prepare to challenge the core disciples."
Ling Han said directly. In front of Elder Yu, there was no need for him to hide anything.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Elder Yu nodded and did not say anything else. He continued to pay attention to the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest, but his expression was not very good.
This time, a total of sixteen people from the Zhentian Clan came, but until now, only Long Yu and Ling Han had come out of the Ancient Ginseng Forest!
The casualties this year seemed to be much more serious than in previous years.
Not only the Zhentian Clan, but even the other two sects were in a similar situation.
So far, only Feng Yao and two other disciples of the Sixth Stage of the Martial Path had come out from the Ice Sect. As for the Thousand Thread Sect, only one disciple of the Sixth Stage of the Martial Path had come out.
This time, the strongest four people had not been seen!
At this moment, a panicked cry for help suddenly came from the entrance of the Ancient Ginseng Forest.
"Help! Save, save me! "
A crisp female voice, accompanied by a flurry of panicked footsteps, entered the ears of the people waiting outside the Ancient Ginseng Forest.
Everyone, including Long Yu, looked towards the Ancient Ginseng Forest, only to see a green-clothed girl staggering out, and behind her, there were actually countless long needle shadows chasing after her.
This young girl in green was Feng Qianqian of the Zhentian Clan!
"Stop!"
The golden-armored youth guarding the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest immediately shouted, but it was to no avail.
The countless needles chased after Feng Qianqian at an extremely fast speed. In the next moment, Feng Qianqian's body was pierced through, and blood immediately gushed out.
Her eyes were still filled with the desire to live, but the needles that pierced through her body were like snakes and scorpions, robbing her of her life force in an instant.
With a bang, Feng Qianqian's body fell to the ground, creating a cloud of dust.
After she fell, the beautiful figure of a woman in light yellow clothes slowly walked out of the thicket, holding a long needle that shone with a bloodthirsty light.
"It's Princess Qian Si, Yu Qianning!"
Long Yu and the others narrowed their eyes. They didn't think that Yu Qianning would dare to kill someone at the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest. She really didn't put the royal family in her eyes!
Yu Qianning's snow white face was expressionless, as if the person who just killed someone wasn't her. Step by step, she walked towards the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest.
"Sir, it doesn't seem appropriate to kill someone at the exit of the Ancient Ginseng Forest, right?"
The golden-armored youth took a step forward and frowned as he said to Yu Qianning.
As the imperial guard of the royal family's princess, the golden-armored youth had always been arrogant. When facing the disciples of the three sects, he acted as if he was a high and mighty ruler.
However, facing Yu Qianning now, even if her cultivation was lower than his, he still had some misgivings.
